This tough and attractive name is popular in its native Bosnia and Turkey, though globally, it might be better known in the form of Timur.
 Deriving literally from the Turkish word for the metal iron, Demir is also on the rise in the US, possibly due to its easy translation into English, its strong vibe, and its similarity to familiar choices like Zamir, Samir, and Emir. 
 
The similar Damir is currently in the US Top 1000, which may be pulling Demir up the charts. They can be viewed as alternative forms of the same name, however, Damir could also mean "given peace" from Serbian, or "heart and mind" in Arabic.
 
Given to 114 boys in 2023, Demir is notably borne by footballer, Yusuf Demir, musician Demir Demirkan, and by Demir The Dog, created by the popular plush brand, Squishmallows.
